Elijah and Olivia visit Houston

DAY 8
Today is the day Olivia and Elijah return to Jackson Hole. They will be leaving a HUGE hole in our lives when they leave. We got up early to leave Uncle John’s in Dallas to get to Houston to catch our flight to Jackson. We have not decided if Olivia just doesn’t like shoes or she likes them so much we have to keep buying them. While she was here, we bought her 4 new pair but she is only returning to Jackson with 3 of the new pair cause she lost the flip flops we bought. From Dallas to Houston we stopped several times, once was a farmers market where we bought a pound of fresh cherries. Olivia and Grandpa ate them in about 10 minutes. Once we got to Houston, Grandma did the laundry and packed the bags, Grandpa packed his bag so he could be the escort and Elijah and Olivia watched a girl movie. Don’t tell anyone Elijah watched a girl movie after all, it did include a couple of guys and a bad woman and a flying dragon. We all sat together at the airport until they needed to board. Elijah, Olivia and Grandpa boarded the plane and Grandma (aka Betty Boop) drove home alone. For all the days they were here, no one including Grandma and Grandpa had any trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. We are already looking forward to next summer. We will have all sorts of new adventures to do, just give us a while to plan them.
